ADAPTATION AND WISDOM

ADAPTATION AND WISDOM

The ancestors survived many calamities over countless generations by honoring the human spirit under the harshest of conditions. These lessons of adaptation and wisdom, so carefully gathered through the ages, are key for humanity to emerge from the current global crisis in which health and environmental disasters, war, famine, and other forms of catastrophic conflict are caused by the collective deterioration of human values.

PASSION, THE HEART OF WRITING

PASSION, THE HEART OF WRITING

Passion is at the heart of my writing. Not so much passion for writing itself – though that helps – but passion for the characters I am portraying or the story I am telling. Most of my writing comes from an issue or experience I feel strongly about. My determination to share my outrage, joy, admiration, sense of social injustice – these are what power my writing and demand that it be done well.
